Wondering what you all do for this. Vacuum doesn’t work fantastic for me. Maybe I need something with a roller brush?Anyone put it through a washing machine? Who has useful tips?

I saw I guy at a SC cleaning his mat with this handy looking thing. He swore by it, but I haven’t tested it myself yet.

My Dyson vacuum did a good job.

I just hung it up, and pressure-washed it. Took a while to dry, but not awful at all, and could have been accelerated with a leaf blower if need be.

Just give it to your cleaning wench and let she/her/he/him/they/them take care of it! ;)

That's why I keep the bed bare except that I might throw a large scrap of corrugated carboard or a large scrap of foam sheet in there. Either can be pulled out past the tailgate to help unload things deep in the bed (if they are not too heavy). I was glad I had the large carboard sheet in there recently as I was doing some winter trimming with my chainsaw pole trimmer and some of the bar oil leaked out onto the cardboard during transport. When the makeshift bed liner has seen better days I can just recycle it, I don't need to clean it. Carboard tends to last me around a year, a foam packing sheet like what comes with a spa cover can last 2-5 years of intermittent use.

You could use a carpet steam cleaner on it but I wouldn't want to waste my time on that!

I throw mine on the floor and vacuum it with my household vacuum. Does the trick. If it's dirty, power clean it.
